Kid Rock Lashes Out at Bruce Springsteen, Tells the Boss to “Stay in Europe”

On Wednesday, Bruce Springsteen took the stage in Manchester, England, with thousands in attendance. Just the start of a series of concerts surrounding the area, the singer not only highlighted his own career but took time to aim some criticism at the current White House administration. With tensions in America reaching a boiling point over the last few months, the singer didn’t hold back when it came to the decisions made by President Donald Trump. But while gaining support from fans, singer Kid Rock shared his own thoughts on Springsteen.

With Kid Rock forcing himself into the conversation, the ordeal started when Springsteen addressed the crowd at his concert, insisting, “The mighty E Street Band is here tonight to call upon the righteous power of art, of music, of rock and roll in dangerous times. In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration.”

Calling for action to be taken, Springsteen added, “Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experiment to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring!”

Kid Rock Advises Bruce Springsteen To “Stay In Europe”

While gaining support from fans, Kid Rock didn’t hesitate to fire back at Springsteen. Appearing on Jesse Watters Primetime, the singer, who visited the White House a few times under the Trump administration, declared, “Bruce Springsteen’s another one of these liberals with mountains of money, desperate to keep his good standing with Hollywood and the elite.” He continued, “His politics are so a** backwards. Stay in Europe, Bruce. Have fun.”

With Kid Rock and Springsteen finding themselves at odds with the American government, the rock singer also pointed to the career of The Boss. “Pound for pound, when it comes to heartland rock and roll, Bruce Springsteen’s made some great songs … but Bob Seger smokes him any day of the week!”

Not one to stay silent, Trump himself fired back at Springsteen, seeming to echo Kid Rock. “I see that Highly Overrated Bruce Springsteen goes to a Foreign Country to speak badly about the President of the United States. Never liked him, never liked his music, or his Radical Left Politics and, importantly, he’s not a talented guy — Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent FOOL, and our WORST EVER President, who came close to destroying our Country.”

Not responding to the backlash, Springsteen appeared to follow the advice of Kid Rock by having some fun in England.
